Assume a 2015 Gallup Poll asked a national random sample of 515 adult women to state their current weight. Assume the mean weight in the sample was = 155. We will treat these data as an SRS from a normally distributed population with standard deviation o = 33 pounds. Give a 99% confidence interval for the mean weight of adult women based on these data. Enter the upper and lower values of your confidence interval into the spaces provided rounded...

Out of a sample of n=10351 prisoners who escaped US prisons, x=7867 were recaptured. Based upon this sample, we wish to estimate p, the true probability of a prison escapee being recaptured. Assume this is a random sample from the population of all prisoners who escape from US prisons and let unknown p be the true percentage of such prisoners who are recaptured. Let p? be the sample proportion of escaped prisoners who are recaptured. Answer the following using R...
